=========
plomlompom tries to build his own roguelike. Currently, it doesn't do
-much, apart from managing some example ncurses windows in a bizarre
-fashion. You can move around a player and meet an enemy, but they don't
-really fight. A map gets generated randomly; it's seed can be saved and
-later reloaded.
+much interesting, apart from managing some ncurses windows in a bizarre
+fashion.
+
+You can move around a player and meet a number of different enemies.
+They move randomly and will only accidentally hit you. You have 5
+hitpoints to lose before death; they have either 1, 3 or 9. Your score
+grows by killing enemies, to the amount of hitpoints each killed enemy
+started with.
+
+The map get generated randomly, too.
+
+There is only one save file (named "savefile"), and it gets overwritten
+each new turn. To start over with a new world, delete it.
